Automating email sending/recieving so house can tell me whats going on

["Steve D" <steve@xxxxxxx>]

I am looking for a decent email client which sends both text AND html
emails
as one. I have seen email clients like this before and would love to
know
which are capable of doing this.
Generally what happens is when you send the html email, it prepends a 
text
version in mime before the html, and appends the html as an inline mime
attachement, or something like that.
I need this, as when checking on the house I won't always be able to
access
an html capable email client, and text only ones, are as I understand
it
able to read the mime text as described above, and not have to download
the
rest. is this true?
As far as I know outlook express doesn't send a text version with it's
html
emails (not had a look yet).

So are there any clients with this ability that can somehow be automated
via
the command line or something else?

Thanks Steve.

PS can be linux or windows (only if I can't find anything for linux...)
